Relationships after WLS
I think relationships can go "bad" or "good" with or without WLS. My DH has been very supportive through this whole thing but we've had our moments. DH needs to be "on board" with this whole process....... It's tough at times though!
My DH loves to eat out and still does, but now he usually goes by himself at lunch time (when I am working) just because it's not "worth it" for me to eat out where he wants to go (Chinese buffet or some fast food joint). I do, occasionally, go with him, but he sees it as a waste. But, he doesn't "get on my case" about anything I eat, unless he KNOWS it's going to make me sick. (Hasn't happened often, but it has happened once or twice).
This whole process is a huge change and you both really need to be ready (I don't think my dh was as ready as he thought he was!) Be ready for the hormonal release as you lose weight too........that's been the biggest challenge for my dh to accept! He just doesn't understand that I'm not upset with him.........it's just the HORMONES talking!!!!
If your marriage is strong, this whole process can make it stronger.........jmho!
Good luck!

Not much else to add...just want to wish you (both) the very best of luck !!
My DH has been very supportive right from the very beginning and I do realize how lucky I am for that...he's even "talking" about going to the gym...(I'll let ya know how that one works out) LOL
But he has started eating different and has been a huge help to me...given time (hopefully) your DH will come around as well !!
All the best to you ~
